git-for-each-ref.txt: minor improvements

Rewrapped synopsis and removed wrong asterisk behind --count option;
clarified --sort=<key> description for multiple keys; documented that
for-each-ref supports not only glob patterns but also prefixes like
"refs/heads" as patterns, and that multiple patterns can be given.
